Protests in Turkey
An undercurrent of
explosive anger at the government of Turkey found a fuse on May 31 as a
protest over the demolition of a public park in Istanbul quickly spread
to other cities and encompassed simmering passions on broader issues in
Turkish political life. Police have used tear gas and water canons to
break up the protests, which have grown as demonstrators express
opposition to what they view as the increasing authoritarianism of Prime
Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. -- Lane Turner (29 photos total)
